सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The 'Han River' (Hangang) is the ultimate sanchaek spot. People go there not just to walk, but to eat 'Hangang Ramen' and enjoy the night view. Office workers often spend their remaining 20-30 minutes of lunch break walking around the business district. This is called 'shik-hu sanchaek'. Traditional palaces like Gyeongbokgung are popular for 'sanchaek' while wearing Hanbok (traditional clothing). The 'Jeju Olle Trail' is a famous series of walking paths on Jeju Island, turning 'sanchaek' into a multi-day travel experience.
